Information Sheet

WHAT: Author of SciFi, Fantasy, Dystopian, Post- Apocolyptic, Western, as well as Cozy Mystery novels, novellas and novelettes and short stories in many genres.

WHO: A 20-year Air Force career, time as a manager at a computer operations company, wife, mother, sister and volunteer, provides a rich background for Connie Cockrell’s story-telling.

When not writing, Cockrell stays active with hiking, gardening, and playing bunko. She writes about whatever comes into her head so her books could be in any genre. She’s published seventeen books so far, has been included in five different anthologies and been published on EveryDayStories.com and FrontierTales.com. Connie’s always on the lookout for a good story idea. Beware, you may be the next one.

WHERE: Cockrell grew up in upstate NY, just outside of Gloversville, NY before she joined the military at age 18. Having lived in Europe, Great Britain, and several places around the United States, she now lives in beautiful Payson, AZ with her husband of over forty years.

WHY: Connie Cockrell has always been interested in writing but never knew just how to go about getting from the start of the story to the end. With the internet, however, and the advent of a robust independent author community, she now is able to write, edit, and release her works where they are for sale on Amazon, Applie iTunes, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, Gumroad, and other electronic book sales venues.
